Military Home Loans

What an eye opener of what Doug Diemer with Military Home Loans can do for my VA homebuyer! Reducing the down payment makes him qualified for much more home, plus Doug sent over the Buyers Net Sheet as we were speaking. It’s hard to believe only 2% of VA’s in CA are using this benefit! Military Home Loans is endorsed by the SDAR (on SDAR website) but I had no idea until I was on the phone with my VA Buyer exactly how beneficial a VA loan is for these folks who proudly serve our country!

We worked with MHL in the purchase, then later refinancing of our home here in San Diego. They are easy to work with, professional, and extremely knowledgeable. In our numerous military moves that included 6 home purchases/​sales over the last 23 years, we’ve never run into a company better than MHL.

We worked with MHL in the purchase, then later refinancing of our home here in Escondido Ca. Ken & Melissa S. handled our re-​fi and made it so easy. My family and I are so happy with the service we received from your company. This was our 3^rd re-​fi and every time with Military Home Loans. Just the best company to work with. THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Highly recommended!

It was a pleasure working with the entire team. The whole process of the loan went very smooth. Highly recommended!

Doug and all staff are fantastic! This was my 3^rd re-​fi and by far the best!

It was fantastic working with Doug and his team at Military Home Loans… I am a first time home buyer and not only did the process go smooth, we closed escrow WAY UNDER 30 DAYS! There service doesn’t stop when escrow closes. .They are here for you long after! Recommend 100%

It was great to work with Doug Diemer of Military Home Loans who came well recommended as a VA specialist firm in San Diego even though I do business in the Sacramento region. He and his team were very professional and worked with my first time clients so they felt very comfortable in the process from the loan side of the equation. When we had an issue with a seller not being able to provide clear title that forced us to go in another direction, he kept on top of the process as my military buyer deployed overseas. Even as both the non-​military spouse and I spent a considerable amount of time ourselves travelling abroad, he was able to coordinate the loan process all the way to the time we had my client sign documents upon landing back in Sacramento.

First time home buyer and I don’t think it could have been any easier. Henry Johnson was my go to guy and not only was he an expert on the whole process, he was also a veteran who broke everything down for me barney style. I will have to admit there was a lot of paper work at the beginning and at points became overwhelming, but it couldn’t have worked out any better. I literally sat back and let Henry and his team work with my realtor, VA, and the escrow company. My realtor also expressed how impressed she was with Henry’s ability to be on top of everything and have answers to questions not even thought about. Thanks again Henry Johnson, Sarah Henning, and Melissa Sindoni for all your help. I will definitely be recommending Military Home Loans to all my friends when they get tired of paying rent.

My husband and I purchased our condo with Doug at Military Home Loans and the entire team was extremely helpful and involved in the process. Even though we turned in our loan docs a few days late, our loan processed on time and we were able to close on time. Doug, Melissa, and Sarah are knowledgable, helpful, and very hardworking. I HIGHLY recommend Military Home Loans to anyone looking to purchase a home!

Hi highly recommend Military Home Loans. I send my clients who need a VA loan here because they know VA loans inside and out. There is a big difference in doing a VA loan every once in a while and doing them all the time. MHL does them all the time. The difference is getting the right loan done on time.

Doug, Sarah, Melissa all provided outstanding customer service and support. Doug’s professionalism and knowledge of the housing market were evident the first time we had a phone conversation. From the very first time that Doug and I spoke to the closing, the team kept us informed, guided us to throughout the loan approval process and expeditiously processed our application until closing day. I can truly say that our home buying process could not have gone any smoother. I will certainly refer any one I come across looking for a great loan processing team to you. Thank you Doug, Sarah and Melissa for a stress-​free home buying experience!

We hit the jackpot with Military Home Loans! From day one, Henry Johnson has been our guiding light throughout our home-​buying process. He has answered every single question that my husband and I had, and as first-​time buyers, we had a lot of them!
Henry made sure we knew he was available, even after business hours, so that we were well taken care of at all times. After each milestone, Henry either called or emailed with precious updates and timelines. I cannot express how grateful and glad we are that we found Military Home Loans.
With so many different choices out there to choose from, it can be daunting to find a company to begin with. We have never been regretful for choosing MHL. We started this whole process in April, and we’re closing on our new home in just a couple of days. We couldn’t be happier! Thank you, Henry, Melissa, and Sarah, for all of your support! :)

The entire team at Military Loans have made this entire loan experience a breeze. If you’re looking for someone to help you secure a loan, these are your guys!
Not only were they able to secure us a great VA loan (when another company told us it was impossible), but they were also incredibly kind, patient, knowledgable and understanding when answering all of our questions. Doug, Melissa and the rest of the team were with us every step of the way — and we had a challenging timeline with just 25 days to close otherwise we’d incur penalties from the seller. And guess what, we closed EARLY! From start to finish our escrow was just 20 days. What a whirlwind. Big thanks to the team. We are so happy we were able to work with you guys. Highly highly recommend Military Home Loans.

At the suggestion of our real estate agent I called Military Home Loans and spoke to Doug Diemer. We did a lot of work up front and everything was set by the time we were looking at houses. Most everyone I spoke to about purchasing a home (especially with a VA loan) had a little horror story. Doug, Melissa, and Sarah made the process very easy. Every question received a quick email reply.
Our real estate agent was great, but we all relied on Doug for the most up-​to-​date information regarding the VA loan process. The best part, we were never handed-​off to the loan processor. The whole office was involved from the initial offer to the closing. I would highly recommend Military Home Loans.

Ken and his team helped my wife and I get a conventional loan back in 2012. I didn’t have 20% to put down and I am not prior military, but we still have a great rate. Two years after our loan was opened I contacted Ken about possibly refinancing and he provided sound advice and guidance without any cost to me. I highly recommend military home loans, even if you are non in the market for a VA loan.

As a first time home buyer using a VA home loan, I had a ton of questions. We were referred to Ken Bates’ office at Military Home Loans by our realtor. I take referrals with a grain of salt. However, upon starting the VA home loan process with a big named company who will remain nameless, in the San Diego market, where you have to be quick and efficient, the unnamed company wasn’t stepping up. After much thought, we looked into the referral at Military Home Loans and after the first phone call I was sold. They actually called me past 5PM on a week night (where some of the bigger companies will automatically turn on the voicemail at 5PM on the dot during the week, very frustrating by the way when purchasing a house over the weekend).
My husband and I decided we would go through the process with them (still critical considering our past experience with the other lender). Ken’s team did not disappoint one bit. ANYTIME I had a question, they answered via email or phone call. When you are making one of the biggest purchases of your life, you want to know where your money and service are going to. The good news is we got our house in less than the 30 days as stated in our initial offer and even to this day, if I have a question regarding our home loan, they don’t hesitate to help us! Great experience with this company!

Military home loans did an amazing job with our home loan. Everyone on the staff was very responsive and timely. They are all helpful and I would recommend them to anyone looking to buy a home! Ken took the time to answer all my questions and they kept us updated every step of the way to make closing on our home as painless as possible.
Thanks team!

My wife and I worked with Ken and his team when we bought our first house a few months back. I cannot overstate how amazing our experience was.
We assumed the process might get a little overwhelming at times but the team at Military Home Loans was by our side the entire time providing updates and helping make the things run as smoothly and quickly as possible.
We would definitely recommend Military Home Loans to anyone and everyone looking to buy.

I have to commend Military Homes Loans, Ken Bates and Melissa the processor. Not only do they get the loans done in 30 days time frame, the process is amazing. Us Realtors and clients are kept abreast weekly on the process and where we are in the process. I cannot say enough how much this helps us all in our busy lives knowing where we are with everything on a weekly basis. Each closing I have had has gone so smooth and with praise from the other Realtors on the other side of the transaction as well.
My hat is off to all of you at MHL. Until the next one, Congrats all for making life easier with your loan processing.

There is a lot of misinformation out there especially regarding VA loans. Forget researching on the net– call these people, they are the experts. They will give you the CORRECT information without pressure or being hounded afterwards. If there is a way to get it done, they know it.
I am a real estate agent of 24 years and after working with lots of lenders, let me explain what makes them special. These might seem like minor things, but if you’ve been in a bad transaction, you’ll understand how important these elements really are.
The loan officers explain the loan process clearly so my clients understand their choices and are able to make educated choices. Everything is in writing, so my clients know what to expect along the way and have answers to their questions before they even come up. They regularly communicate with the clients along with the buyers’ and sellers’ agents. Even if that’s to say «nothing has changed since our last update». I can call and actually talk to them. If they can’t talk right that moment I get a return call shortly thereafter. Finally, they provide all of that with great interest rates and terms!
